NYC shrink tells Yale audience she fantasizes about shooting white people in head

A New York City-based psychiatrist told an audience at the Yale School of Medicine in April that she had fantasies of “unloading a revolver into the head of any white person that got in my way.”

Dr. Aruna Khilanani spewed the race-hating virtual remarks … at the Ivy League institution’s Child Study Center on April 6.

“I had fantasies of unloading a revolver into the head of any white person that got in my way, burying their body and wiping my bloody hands as I walked away relatively guiltless with a bounce in my step. Like I did the world a f–king favor.”

There’s a lot of Really Interesting Opinions at that and other articles on the subject.

Her profile on the Independent Doctors of NY website seems, oddly, to have vanished. Fortunately, the internet never forgets, and archive.org has it archived from March and before:

Aruna Khilanani, MD, MA
Specialities: Psychiatry
Focus of Practice: Forensic Psychiatry, Grief, Self Esteem, Racial Identity
I am a female academic psychiatrist who has taught at Cornell NYPH, and run a process group for resident physicians at Harlem Hospital. I have a private practice in Morningside Heights of Manhattan, devoted to the treatment of mental illness, psychopharmacology, and psychotherapy. I am also a psychoanalyst. Here, I treat high functioning individuals who have jobs and significant relationships, but may struggle in certain areas that impact their personal or professional lives.

Also gives her address and phone number. Which I suspect will be changed soon, if not already. Now here’s the part that will shock, SHOCK, I SAY, you to your very core:

I completed a Masters of Humanities at the University of Chicago in critical theory, around issues of gender, race, sexuality, African American Studies, embodiment and class.

If you are one of those poor innocents who wonders why some people seem to be up in arms about “critical race theory” and are wondering why it should be excluded from government funding, programs and education… here’s why. CRT makes you racist, sometimes violently so.

Somebody might want to look into those. A humanist fantasizing about genocide? Seems an odd mix.

An aside: is “psychiatrist goes insane and turns into a villain” a wider trope than just Harleen Quinzel? Of course given “Doctor” Khilananis course of study it seems she was cuckoo for CRT puffs before she started, so this seems to be more a matter of a loon taking up psychiatry.
